I have composed a Missa Brevis (short Mass) setting with several distinct

title page, contents (with one-bar snippets if that's not too difficult), a
page of comments, etc. Can someone point me to where in the documentation
(or elsewhere) I can find *all* the necessary information on doing that? I
have looked in the docs, and found some of it, but I think I am missing
something. I use 2.5.29, and run it on FreeBSD 5.3 with a reasonable
amount of horsepower and ram.
There is no place where you can find all this info. The snippets would
probably
be done with quotes, the overall book with \book, titles with \header and
possibly
printallheaders, etc. You'll need to hunt around in the docs (and possibly
lilypond-user
as well) to find all this info.

Graham, thanks for the reply. I was thinking that would be something like
your answer. A while back I created a liturgy booklet using OpenOffice
with PNGs inserted where I needed to. In OO I was able to shrink the
lilypond pieces as necessary to fit them in. Having tweaked my lilypond
files the way I want them, would this also not be a reasonable way to do
the job, and also include other graphics as necessary? Especially for
non-geeks like myself? (Perhaps objectionable only to the Lily purists
:-)
Blessings,
Fr. Gordon Gilbert
